Mean girls as fairies PDF Print E-mail
english.gifRhianna wrote this great poem called Mean girls as faries

Mean girls as fairies.

My wings are as sharp as broken glass  -
They sparkle in the sun like fizzy lemonade!
But my magic is a thunder-lightning-
It rumbles in the bottle like a sun-quake.
I cannot help my thunder-lightning:
The storms come from my home.

I wish I was good like the gold necklace
Worn by my dead sister. 

I wish there were no earthquakes
Or tornadoes, no tsunamis or bad people.

I would love to make cherry sweets
That make people happy and laugh.

In my glass heart are diamonds  -
Please spend them on poor people
So they can watch DREAM GIRLS in their homes.

Lovely poem, Rhianna. I enjoyed all of it, but particularly the clever echo of "glass wings" and "glass heart", and the matter-of-fact strangeness of "I cannot help my thunder-lightning". You might like to read a few poems by two great American poets -- Sylvia Plath (maybe when you're older) and Elizabeth Bishop.

Rhianna I liked your poem very much. I don't know how old you are or if you are doing any further work in literature/poetry etc but I really think you should try to develop your charisma further. A really great poem. Well done!
